Behind The Wheel Mmm,M .mm: iM.mn Although this may not be the ! car on the most wanted list of teenage drivers, it is the one most commonly seen in the school parking lot- photo by Kathy Morgan The Porsche 911 Turbo and the six cylinder Pontiac Fiero were just a couple of additions to the automotive industry in 1985. But, for many Seaholm teen- agers, the biggest addition to the world of driving was getting their own drivers ' licenses. Only sixteen year olds could explain the Party Animal feel- ing that swept over them when they got their licenses. There were no more wasted dates. For example, going to see movies like Porkys and pretending not to understand anything that is going on because mom and dad arc sitting right next to you and your date would never happen again. Sixteen year olds learned to join the great American pastime of begging for the family car on Friday and Saturday nights. This allowed you to (at least) enjoy a decent comedy with your date, or to drive yourself to the major bash looking suave instead of having mom drop you off. To most people, this family car oks like a station wagon or some other klunker, but to a newly licensed teenager it is the fastest car in the world and Woodward Avenue is the Indy 500 Race Track. It is a great feeling to get behind the wheel with a full tank of gas, said junior Derek Stot- tlemeyer. The arrival of the final driver ' s license is the most exciting day of one ' s life. Junior Jeff Blackward put it best, I ' m finally out on the road. How long I stay there remains to be seen. The 1 986 Porsche 91 1 is just one of the dreamcars newly licensed drivers try their best to con out of their parents. photo by Kathy Morgati UNDERCLASS 111
